The Meaning of Work Harder
Episode 436
0m | Apr 27, 2024I always thought, when people said “work harder”
That they meant to work faster,
To be more busy,
More rushed.
Hustle is the word that comes to mind.
And I’ve never been good at that.
I struggle to sustain it
Since it so often comes with a kind of anxiety
As if I am making up for an inherent deficit.
But I have found a new meaning for “work harder”:
Work more consistently, without stopping, overthinking, or getting distracted
As long as it takes, until the project is completed.
I find this definition to be far more useful.
It is extremely effective for getting things done
And much more peaceful than what I thought they meant.
